Text messages were released between an FBI official responsible who was a key figure in the chain of events that began when the bureau, in 2016, received the infamous anti-Trump ‘dossier.’ The FBI officials involved sent texts reading ‘F TRUMP,’ among others.
The infamous dossier launched a counterintelligence investigation into ‘Russian meddling in the election’ that ultimately came to encompass FISA surveillance of a Trump campaign associate. Text messages between FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page in 2016 that were obtained by Fox News on Tuesday referred to then-candidate Donald Trump as a ‘loathsome human’ and ‘an idiot.’
Strzok briefed the committee on Dec. 5, 2016, sources said. But within months of that session House Intelligence Committee investigators were contacted by an informant suggesting that there was ‘documentary evidence’ that Strzok was purportedly obstructing the House probe into the dossier. Strzok also oversaw the bureau’s interviews with ousted National Security Adviser Michael Flynn – who pleaded guilty to lying to FBI investigators in the Russia probe.
